Chapter 440 The Little Daughter-in-Law of the 1980s (10)
Xia Ling: "No..."
Mama Mei: "No? Then what did you do there? Spend it? Earlier, your Aunt Luo came and said that you went to find a tailor in the middle of the day. Our family is full of needles and threads. What are you doing with a tailor?"
"Mei Qian! Tell the truth, did you go to the Tang family with money behind your mother's back, and you went to withdraw the engagement yourself?"
Knowing daughter Mo Ruomu, Mei Qian had been clamoring for divorce before.
Mama Mei was on guard.
She hid the money well, for fear that Mei Qian would do such a foolish thing.
But I didn't expect to be on guard against everything, but in the end I still couldn't prevent it...
Pain in the head, Mama Mei pressed her forehead, and suddenly realized, "Big girl, what did you just say?"
Xia Ling: "I said, I didn't give the money to Li Qing, and I didn't go to the Tang's house to withdraw the marriage. I went to the Tang's house and gave all the money to Tang Nan. Let Tang Nan live for a while, and let Aunt Tang come to our house , to discuss our marriage."
Mama Mei looked at Xia Ling, examining her from top to bottom, as if she didn't know her.
"Da Ya, who did you say you gave the money to?"
In the yard, Grandpa Mei and Father Mei were also stunned.
They looked at Xia Ling together.
Look at the face, look at the clothes, the girl is their granddaughter/daughter, it's all right!
But what she said shocked the three of them.
She was going to die before, didn't she have to be with Li Qing?
Why turned around and decided to marry Tang Nan again, and secretly returned all the money from the engagement, how much do you want to marry?
Dad Mei: "Big girl, tell Dad, did Li Qing do something to apologize to you?"
With a dark face, Grandpa Mei took a sip of his pipe.
"Then Li Qing, no matter how educated you are, I have to arrange for me to come to Meijia Village. Just assign him the worst and dirtiest job."
The educated youths who go to the countryside are indeed dispatched by party secretaries.
Before Mei Qian liked Li Qing, Grandpa Mei arranged for Li Qing to teach.
Those educated youths who refused to be disciplined were arranged by Grandpa Mei to pick up manure, pour manure water, and do those dirty jobs.
...
Seeing the whole family, she was not nervous about the two hundred dollars, but about her.
Xia Ling's heart is also warm.
She smiled: "Grandpa, don't mess with Li Qing anymore. I have nothing to do with him anymore."
"Mom, dad, and grandpa... I just want to think about it. People from the countryside are not in the same world as Li Qing. Instead of thinking about what you have and what you don't have, it's better to grasp the present moment and cherish the happiness in front of you."
"Oh, do you really think so?" Mama Mei asked.
Xia Ling: "Well. Mom, I made you worry about me before, but now I really think about it."
"Donnan is a good man. If I marry him, he will treat me as well as my father treats my mother."
Unobtrusively, he slapped Mei's father and Mei's mother again.
Xia Ling wanted to skip this matter.
"Heh, my daughter has really grown up." Mama Mei nodded and smiled, "You took the two hundred yuan from the family without saying a word, and you made the decision on the engagement money?"
Suddenly, his face became serious, "Go and kneel in the corner of the courtyard for me, and reflect on myself, I won't get up unless I speak."
Mei's mother lost her temper, and Mei's father shunned her. What's more, it was indeed Xia Ling who made a mistake in this matter.
Grandpa Mei was also angry at first, but at any rate, Xia Ling changed her mind now and wanted to marry Tang Nan, who was being disciplined by her mother.
After knocking on the pot of the pipe, Grandpa Mei looked at the girl and said nothing, but he made a serious note of Li Qing in his heart.
He walked away with his hands behind his back.
